The only thing is you could get a real Genesis with some games cheaper than that...

I don't think you could get a real Genesis with twenty games for $40 though. Maybe. It seems like a decent deal but I wonder about the quality.

The question I have is can I mod it to play Genesis carts? I am guessing no, I only briefly looked at the hardware and perused the game list. If I did not already have two working Genesis/Mega Drive's I would buy one because it has my two of my favorite Genesis games - Golden Axe and Altered Beast. If it had Truxton on it I would be sold.

Prices from Half.com
Sega Genesis 19.25 (couldn't find one with a box unless it was brand new, sealed)
For games, I looked for descriptions stating the labels were in good condition if there was more than one listing with just the cart.
Alien Storm $3.50
Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle $3.00 (all others either had no description or had boxes/instructions)
Altered Beast $3.98
Arrow Flash $6.50
Columns III $3.19
Crack Down $3.24
Decap Attack $4.50 (Half.com didn't have it, soo I found a But It Now! eBay listing)
Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine $2.25
Ecco $2.99
Ecco Jr. $3.25
ESWAT: City Under Siege 2.75
Flicky $3.90
Gain Ground $1.99
Golden Axe $2.49
Jewel Master $1.25
Kid Chameleon $5.50
Shadow Dancer $1.95
Shinobi III:Return of the Ninja Master $1.50
Sonic and Knuckles $3.88 (could not find on Half.com, found a Buy It Now! listing from eBay)
Sonic Spinball $0.75

Total: $81.61

Price of Sega Mega Drive Twin Pad Player $39.90

I suppose that if the condition of the games wasn't an issue, then one could possibly get all those games and a Genny for less than $39.90.

I heard that it is being released for the 20th anniversary of the Mega Drive launch. It has the "official" stamp from Sega, probably the reason for the price. My local mom'n pop sells a "Gen-X" which plays Genesis and NES for the same price w/o the games. I think it does stereo for Gene, though.

this thing is cooler than you thought. It can play both NTSC and PAL Mega Drive games as well as USA Sega Genesis. Power supply is 100-240V. I really don't need one but if you wanted to extend the collection into other regions this rules.

Well apparently I do not know how to read. Looks like one of these may be in my future after all.
